#LinuxJavaFixes

Simple javaagent to fix problems in linux with non latin hotkeys in gui java applications.

Aimed to walkaround bug with java gui apps: "Hotkeys not functional in non-latin keyboard layout in 13.10 - 16.04" https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/1226962

Swing java apps (IntelliJ Idea, Oracle SQL Developer etc.)

Copy to any directory 2 files:

LinuxJavaFixes-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar

javassist-3.12.1.GA.jar

add

-javaagent:[path to directory with jar files]/LinuxJavaFixes-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar

to java run string

Examples:

SoapUI

Add line to soapui.sh.

JAVA_OPTS="$JAVA_OPTS java -javaagent:[path to directory with jar files]/LinuxJavaFixes-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar

Oracle SQL Developer

Add line to sqldeveloper/ide/bin/jdk.conf.

AddVMOption -javaagent:[path to directory with jar files]/LinuxJavaFixes-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar

IntelliJ Idea

Add line to idea64.vmoptions or idea.vmoptions

-javaagent:[path to directory with jar files]/LinuxJavaFixes-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar

Eclipse

Copy to any directory 2 files:

LinuxJavaFixes-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar

javassist-3.12.1.GA.jar

Add following line to eclipse.ini.

-javaagent:[path to directory with jar files]/LinuxJavaFixes-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar=swt

Advanced part

Modify kaybindings for swing apps in case non russian layout

If you want another mapping you can create it by yourself:

• run any app with java vm option -javaagent:[path]/LinuxJavaFixes-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar=print
• after that utily begin print to console entered symbol codes using format

XKeysymPatchAgent.keysym=[hex code]

• then create file using format [hex code]=[latin code of the same button]

Example:

6ca=Q

6c3=W

etc.

• replace hex codes wuth yours
• use following option to run app with custom mapping:

-javaagent:[path to directory with jar files]/LinuxJavaFixes-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar=[your mapping file]

Modify keybindings for swt in case non russian layout

• add following line to eclipse.ini

-javaagent:[path]/LinuxJavaFixes-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar=swt:print

• then grab codes and create properties file with mapping

[your locale key]=[latin key]

• then run eclipse wuth following config

-javaagent:[path]/LinuxJavaFixes-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar=swt:[path to your mapping file]

linuxjavafixes's Issues

special characters

Hi,
I found problem with mapping keys to special characters such as ];\. Is there some limitation why those characters can not be used? According to my research they are all in standard character tables.

ubuntu 14.04 + webstorm 9

Hi! I'm not very experienced user...
Ububntu 14.04 + webstorm 9:
I have "webstorm.vmoptions" - if I write here nothing happens
and "webstorm64.vmoptions" - if I write here webstorm dosen't run

I added: -javaagent:/home/user/Downloads/shortcut_fix/LinuxJavaFixes-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar

Possible NPE in transform

At line
https://github.com/zheludkovm/LinuxJavaFixes/blob/master/src/main/java/net/x11/patch/XKeysymTransformer.java#L28

className may be NULL if ClassLoader.defineClass was invoked with null argument for className, what is legal.

Netbeans 8.1 and 8.2 RC - patch has no effect

I has updated /etc/netbeans.conf:

netbeans_default_options="-J-javaagent:/home/mnv/soft/LinuxJavaFixes-master/build/LinuxJavaFixes-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar -J-client -J-Xss2m -J-Xms32m -J-Dapple.laf.useScreenMenuBar=true -J-Dapple.awt.graphics.UseQuartz=true -J-Dsun.java2d.noddraw=true -J-Dsun.java2d.dpiaware=true -J-Dsun.zip.di sableMemoryMapping=true"

/home/mnv/soft/LinuxJavaFixes-master/build/ contains two files:

$ ls /home/mnv/soft/LinuxJavaFixes-master/build/ -l
итого 648
-rwxrwxrwx 1 mnv mnv 644148 апр 22  2015 javassist-3.12.1.GA.jar
-rwxrwxrwx 1 mnv mnv  12462 апр 22  2015 LinuxJavaFixes-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar

When I run netbeans I have next message:

$ ./netbeans 
LinuxJavaPatchAgent.loaded properties from classpath! patch.key.mapping.properties

So, russian shortcuts not works.

What is wrong?

Doesn't work with PHPStorm 2019.2 EAP (build #PS-192.4205.18)

I think that problem is with new JRE/JVM.

elementary OS Freya + PhpStorm 8.0.3 [czech]

Hi, I have downloaded files from your build and added them to /home/hobi/.java-fixes/.

I added -javaagent:/home/hobi/.java-fixes/LinuxJavaFixes-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar to the phpstorm.vmoptions and phpstorm64.vmoptions files.

I use elementary OS, which is based on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS and I use czech keyboard.
I have Java 8 installed via sudo apt-get install oracle-java8-installer command.

But it doesn't work... It still throws me unknown keycode 0x0 error.

Any idea how to fix it? :)

Lotus Notes (IBM Notes 9.0.1)

Hello!
I use IBM Notes 9.0.1 (Lotus Notes). It has such problem with not latin layouts.
How can I make it work with your patch?

Add more key code

I need to implement more keys. for example slash. Where can I find these hex codes?
